Jedi is in Hertford. A fair drive, but worth it for me at least. There are no decent skills instructors in Bristol. I've looked."</p>
<p>Wrecker and BristolBikeproject what about Katy Curd?<br />
she all right for a girl.... <img src="http://singletrackworld.com/forum/my-plugins/bbcode-buttons/default/icon_wink.gif" title=";-)" class="bb_smilies" alt=""/> (we was on the same CTC skill course)<br />
Or there is ME! I be happy to travel Bristol way for a small group or 1to1 coaching. (I do ride at Bristol a far bit)

Mon, 16 Dec 2013 13:18:27 +0000chris_db5601888@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>I had a session with Ed recently and all I can say was he is a great guy and made a real difference to the way I approach trail problems. </p>
<p>He has a great style and he is genuinely a really nice person to spend a day riding with. </p>
<p>I'm sure Jedi is equally as good; are we comparing apples with apples?</p>
<p>And as for the The Chop; just wish I could play the didge (at all).</p>

Mon, 16 Dec 2013 13:18:20 +0000mindmap35601887@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>I've done a day with Ed and really enjoyed it. I really liked the way that he broke things down into pretty simple steps. I also really enjoyed the riding in Hebden. Ed was easy to get to for me because I was able to stop off with some Family in Sheffield and make a real weekend out of it.</p>
<p>I can't comment on Jedi, but would like to do a day with him in the new year.

Mon, 16 Dec 2013 12:56:00 +0000ahsat5601824@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>I ended up at Ed as Jedi was just too far for me to get to. And as a result I have been to see Ed twice and am planning on sorting out a 1:1 with him next year. He has single-handly revolutionised my riding. I am sure Jedi would have done the same though as never heard a bad word about either.</p>
<p>Oh and Ed is a dude <img src="http://singletrackworld.com/forum/my-plugins/bbcode-buttons/default/icon_biggrin.gif" title=":D" class="bb_smilies" alt=""/> </p>
<p>Bit of an Ed fan-girl now - even have the hoody!

In the end some coaches you connect with, and that's an entirely personal thing. The coach I've been back to twice, and about to book again is John Paul or Aline in Sheffield. Just connect really well with him, and I've got consistently faster and happier on the bike since doing some days with JP

Also it's much nicer down south as the people are friendler

<p>(in the context of having been to Tony 3 times and never having ridden with Ed).

Sat, 14 Dec 2013 00:12:40 +0000Onzadog5596962@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>I thought that before I went to Jedi. I thought his custom build area was"too artificial" for the natural Peaks riding I do.</p>
<p>How wrong was I!</p>
<p>Tony only teaches about three things. It's up to your where you apply them.

Sat, 14 Dec 2013 00:08:02 +0000eyerideit5596958@http://singletrackworld.com/forum/<p>Going by the videos:</p>
<p>Ed: natural stuff.</p>
<p>Jedi: more Jumpy/Northshore/berms/Trail Centre focused stuff.</p>
<p>I've probably got that completely wrong and in the interest of fairness I'd like to try both. </p>
<p>Might have to save up some cash up for a one to one with each.

That alone is reason enough ..... Vaya con Ed amigo

mountain biking for 15 years<br />
Gap jumping after 3 hours with Jedi !! how can you not be pleased with that,<br />
tony seems to be able to instil confidence and release your potential.<br />
The year before I did the 725 ft bungee at verzasca (golden eye) but my day with tony was unforgettable and immense and brought me more satisfaction
